I'm surprised most people seem to completely rule out drafting Valeri Nichushkin. He's ranked ahead of everyone but Jones in the March ISS draft rankings. Most people seem to be apprehensive about drafting a Russian for many reasons, but what if we have the next Malkin on our hands here?
If we had the #1 pick this would be my preference:
Mackinnon
Jones
Drouin
Nichushkin
Barkov
